How to read the AION 2 Steam charts
What each number and mark on the AION 2 Steam chart above means.
- Playing now: Steam's own count of clients running AION 2 at the last 10-minute check, with the check time in UTC. It is not a count of accounts or of people who played today.
- 24-hour peak: The highest of the 10-minute checks in the last 24 hours, with its time. The daily view shows the highest check of each UTC day.
- All-time peak: The launch-day record of 397,905 on Oct 5, as reported from SteamDB. We started collecting on Oct 14, so we did not see it ourselves.
- Gaps: When Steam answers a check with no number (it happened at 02:10 UTC on Oct 15), the line breaks instead of dropping to zero.
- Maintenance: Shaded bands are game server maintenance windows announced by NCSOFT on Steam. Steam keeps counting open clients while the servers are down.
- Before Oct 14: Steam has no public history of player counts, so days from Sep 30 to Oct 13 only show the two launch records the press reported.
Steam review trend since launch
Steam's own review histogram: share of positive reviews written each day, plus the share by hours played and by language. The bar height is the positive share.

Questions about the AION 2 player count
How many people are playing AION 2 right now?
The big number at the top of this page is Steam's own count of clients running AION 2, read from Steam's public API every 10 minutes and stamped with the time in UTC. For example, at 04:40 UTC on Oct 15, 2026 Steam reported 182,328. It covers Steam only.
Is AION 2 dying?
Press "Compare today with launch" above: it sets the highest point of the last 24 hours and the current Steam count next to the launch-day peak of 397,905. We show the data and let you judge.
Are the players real or bots?
Steam counts every running game client, whether or not a person is playing on it. We do not estimate a bot share because no public data supports one. One fact you can check: during the Oct 14 maintenance, with the game servers offline, Steam still counted about 12,000 clients.
Why is AION 2 not on Steam Charts?
When we checked on Oct 15, 2026, steamcharts.com/app/3393110 returned a not-found page. This site reads the count straight from Steam's public API every 10 minutes and keeps every sample from Oct 14 on, so the chart above works as an AION 2 Steam chart.
Why are Korea and Taiwan missing?
Steam's number covers the global version on Steam only. The Korean and Taiwanese version, which Tech Times says launched in November 2025, has no servers in NCSOFT's global server list, and players on NC's PURPLE launcher share the global servers but are not counted by Steam (Tech Times). No public source gives those numbers, so we do not show them.
Where do the numbers come from?
Steam's public GetNumberOfCurrentPlayers API for app 3393110, checked every 10 minutes, and Steam's public review data. Records from before our collector started (the 171,530 Early Access peak and the 397,905 launch-day peak) come from articles that cite SteamDB, each linked.
